failures in reading comprehension
Aug. 5th, 2009 08:57 pmI was standing in line at the grocery store, idly glancing over the mandatory rack of magazines and recipe books and Archie comics in that bored way you do when the person in front of you is taking forever, when all of a sudden I saw a magazine called..."Church Strippers".
I blinked, astonished. Church strippers?! Weird enough that someone would publish something so scandalous and bizarre, but the fact that Fred Meyer carried it? Right out there in the open, even! They put a black plastic cover over "Cosmopolitan", for crying out loud, but "Church Strippers" gets to sit defiantly uncensored next to "OK Magazine" and "75 Best Chicken Recipes"? WHAT WAS THE WORLD COMING TO? WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN?!
And then I looked a little closer, and realized that the magazine was actually called "Church Suppers".
The casserole and plate of brownies on the cover made a lot more sense after that.
